I keep getting an email saying that my account has been limited because someone in Europe tried to access it; or because Paypal needs more information. The emails look like they come from Paypal but are sent to undisclosed recipients and not to me directly.
Then I am directed to reset my account. I have never done it because I have been using my account and have not been having any problems. Would Paypal contact me in this way? I've been getting these for ages but am afraid to follow up. My last order came to me from the US, which I would think would be considered international.
Thanks 🙂

I received 3 copies in a two hours period. I have no doubt this is an attempt at fraudulent activity falsely attributed to the good name of PayPal by a dishonest third party.
